The City Never Stops

 

The city wakes up before the sun.
Generators hum. Buses fill with passengers. Traders arrange their goods. Workers rush through traffic, and somewhere between all the noise, millions of people are quietly pursuing their own version of a better life.
A city is more than buildings and roads.
It is people.
It is the woman opening her shop for another day. The driver trying to make enough money to take care of his family. The student sitting in traffic while preparing for an examination. The young entrepreneur working from a small room and hoping someone will notice what they have created.
Every street carries a story.
Sometimes, we move so quickly through the city that we forget to notice the people living those stories around us.
